This was the quintessential Parisian experience! We absolutely loved Ride N Smile. I would advise that this is NOT for the faint of heart - the traffic was a bit intimidating at times. You MUST be bold and confident - as it's much different than driving a car! The route was fantastic - Tom was very informative! The secret spot to view the Eiffel Tower was AWESOME and way better than anyway to see the tower! We will keep the pictures forever! Thank you so much!

Best tour we went on! Truly enjoyed the experience. Great guide/owner. He gave us both a feel of the tourist Paris as well as the less well known, all while feeling safe and enjoying ourselves. Could have done a full day if I had the chance!

We did this tour on 31/12/2016 and even in the freezing cold, the tour was excellent.

Our guide, Tom, was extremely knowledgeable and showed us around every place that you could think of and more. He knew all the spots to go to where you could get the best photos and was happy to take us wherever we wanted to go in Paris. The Vespa's were excellent to travel all over Paris on and we couldnt have asked for more from Tom and the tour.

I would highly recommend this tour as it was the best part of our visit to Paris and well worth the cost!!
